Tuning?

I really do have to say I’ve had the worst luck when it comes to finding someone/somewhere to tune my car. My friend’s 328i is tuned so hard now that’s it’s practically M performance, and here I am still trying to find a tune that exists for my car.

My friend with a 2 litre non turbo 4-cyl Honda exhaust pops like crazy because it’s straight piped, I straight piped my twin turbo C300 and no pops, or they’re very quiet🤦🏽*♂️ This has been the worst tuning experience. If anyone knows anything or can give me some valuable info about exhaust pops and crackles let me know. 2015 C300 Biturbo 4-cyl w205

Not to sound like a pompous A hole, but the C300 wasn't made for "pops and crackles" it's made To be a nice comfy cruiser. If you wanted pops and crackles you should have stepped up to a C43 or C63. And tuning wise, I'm pretty sure that OEtuning has a tune for C300 that's pulls some pretty solid numbers.

thank you for the oetuning link. I know that the target for the C300 wasn’t to be a sports car... but I want to turn it into one. That’s my problem. Audi and bmw both have so many choice from stage 1-3 and seems like the C300 is just much harder to find parts for and modify having only a stage 1 tune available. And that’s what bothers me.
